Description
In this study I provide an examination of the varying effects of globalization that
have impacted early childhood education programs, teaching methods, and other aspects
of the pre-primary learning system in regions dominated by two of China’s ethnic
minorities: Uyghur and Tibetan, compared to the impacts on Han area preschools. I look
at non-Chinese early childhood education methods such as Developmentally Appropriate
Practices (DAP), Montessori teaching, and bilingualism, and evaluate their prevalence in
the different regions. To investigate this topic I use both historical sources and online data
from preschools in China.
